Brilliant Planner, Brilliant Wedding, Brilliant LIZ!
Liz is the best – our wedding day was perfect and she made everything happen leading up to it. My wife and I are busy people and we were planning the wedding from a different country and we couldn't be happier with how it all came together. I couldn't recommend Liz and her team at Brilliant Earth more highly.

The best wedding decision we made!!
Liz is organized, thorough, creative, easy to communicate with, and FUN!! We are so grateful for all of her help. She truly took our vision and made our wedding day better than we could ever have imagined. Everything ran smoothly and she was there for everything we needed along the way!! Could not recommend Brilliant Events more. She is the best!

15/10 Brilliant Events knocks it out of the park
It's not possible to capture the magic of Brilliant Events in words. You have to experience it to understand. I was a stupidly busy bride in the lead-up to our wedding, and all I can say is Every. Last. Detail was handled. I have not one thing these women could have done differently. They showed up as coordinators and left as friends. Liz Tiedman and Hayley Cianca had to navigate all kinds of gong shows, many of which I didn't even know about; all they'd say was "I got you". They so did. Every guest we spoke with said it was the best wedding they'd ever been to. Thanks, ladies. Looking forward to debriefing over drinks one of these days!

Wonderful and Professional
Professional, diligent, down to earth, respectful, honest, amazing - just a few of the words we would use to describe Liz and her team!
Liz was receptive and open to our wishes, and able to use her experience and knowledge to execute everything smoothly.
Aspects unique to our event were handled in stride!
Liz knows her work, the region and the vendors, and is organized.
If you want drama - seek elsewhere.
If you want an experienced planner with a heart of gold who will save you time, money and aggravation - look no further.
We hired Liz the first day we met her because of her positive energy and attentiveness. Elle était, vraiment, à l’écoute!
And last, but not least - we have made new friend!

Liz & Team are on top of their game
Liz and her team was wonderful to work with. The day of wedding went so smoothly and she was incredible at handling decor and working with all our vendors. Nic and I highly recommend her.

Professional, Thorough and Great Communicators
It was a pleasure to work with Brilliant Events! I had Hayley for day-of-coordination. She was professional, organized and a creative communicator. I was initially hesitant to hire a planner but my venue required a day-of-coordinator and I’m so glad I did! In hindsight, it made things so much easier and stress-free to have someone else not worrying about the little details. I would highly recommend working with Brilliant Events for your special day!

Have it as Easy as the Groom!!
Whistler was our destination wedding, since we live in Ontario, but have a love for BC. As a bride who wanted it as easy as the groom, Brilliant Events was there to look after EVERYTHING. Their suggestions for an officiant to marry us, master baker at The Flour Pot, an artist with flowers at Ninebark, and Calligrapher Natasshia Neary were bang on, and the perfect fit for us. Liz and Hayley have impeccable taste and attention to detail. This was my second wedding, but my first with a planner. Get a planner. Get a planner who fits your style. Brilliant Events was amazing. Best day ever.

100% made our day PERFECT!
Liz is a dream to work with! Having a local wedding was important to us as was working with local vendors. Liz was invaluable to our planning process. She radiates warmth and light which makes her very approachable and fun to work with! Ultimately, you're planning what is hopefully going to be one of the best days of your life and the planning should be just as fun (in my humble opinion).
Liz offers considered suggestions and provides thoughtful insight to all questions, thoughts, ideas and concerns that we flagged. Her attention to detail when it comes to the day of timeline is truly her superhero power. She thought of everything (and I mean EVERYTHING) which allowed my partner and I to be calm, cool and fully present on the best day ever. It also created the space for our families to enjoy every moment as Liz and her team brought our dream day to life.

10/10 Made our day SO special!
I cannot recommend Brilliant Events more enthusiastically! I'll start with the end: without Liz I don't think I could have been the relaxed, happy and present bride that I was on my wedding day! That feeling alone is worth hiring her team.
Liz goes above and beyond with her couples, right from the very start I felt like she took the time to listen to our vision. Liz is great at helping you work within your budget and can provide guidance on what to prioritize or splurge on vs. what is trendy and can be skipped.
Liz has a sparkle that attracts the best people, quite quickly in conversations with our other vendors I got the sense that people love to work with her. I heard MANY times through the process, "Oh you are working with Brilliant Events- you are in good hands!". She pulled together a dream team of local pros that I never would have found on my own.
Beyond wedding planning she is just also an amazing person, friend & mum.

Liz is the best
So worth it. SO WORTH IT. The best decision we made (after deciding on spending our lives together) was to hire Liz to keep us sane and organized while planning such a big day. Liz was imperative to our whole process, she kept us grounded, organized, on track and realistic all while making sure our vision of our day was in focus. The whole process working with her was never stressful or overwhelming, she made it fun and memorable. The day of was more than we could ever have imagined, and a large part of that was due to Liz. We were two brides who were on time! With a bridal party of over 20 people! One million percent recommend.
